Chlamydia cannot be grown on conventional bacteriological medium. A tissue culture system has been available that allows easier laboratory culture of the Chlamydia species. However, with the exception of the LGV serovars, most C. trachomatis strains do not readily infect tissue culture cells.

What diseases are caused by chlamydiae?
Chlamydia trachomatis can cause sexually transmitted infections (STIs) such as chlamydia urethritis or cervicitis. Chlamydia pneumoniae is linked to respiratory tract infections, while Chlamydia psittaci can cause psittacosis, an avian disease that can be transmitted to humans.
Where is streptococcus pneumoniae found?
Streptococcus pneumoniae, commonly known as pneumococcus, is often found in the upper respiratory tract of healthy individuals. It can be present in the nose and throat without causing symptoms. In some cases, it can cause infections such as pneumonia, sinusitis, and otitis media.
What microorganisms grow in solid media?
Bacterial cultures.
What is the gram stain of bacterial pneumonia?
Bacterial pneumonia is typically caused by organisms such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae. These bacteria can have different Gram stain characteristics: S. pneumoniae is Gram-positive, H. influenzae is Gram-negative, and M. pneumoniae lacks a cell wall and is therefore classified as "neither" in Gram staining.
